    A beautiful half day escape!

    After landing in the morning, I was keen to get out and see the countryside. This was a perfect little tour. Comfortable bus, beautiful drive. The views of the lakes and the walk as well was a perfect little escape from the city. A must do if you’re wanting to get out for the afternoon.

      Interesting trip to the Wicklow Mountains National Park. Amazing view of the Glendalough Upper Lake and surroundings. It feels a bit short because of the 1h20min we had to visit the lake and surroundings, we spent 40 min return to get there. But it's a half day trip so it's understandable. I was a bit concerned about some reviews but our trip was smooth and well organized. I would recommend it.

        I consider Glendalough a must if you come to Dublin.

        Glendalogh and Wicklow are a must. The excursion was nice. But I must say the place were we had to go to start the excursion was the Paddys Palace, disgustinly dirty. And not from not cleaning in a day or two but from not cleaning in ages. In the bus the main micro did not work well so the driver had to use a secondary micro. This meant he was driving with one hand in small mountain roads. It was dangerous, did not feel safe. Not his fault but maintenance and cleaning are needed.
